    Public Consultation Report – December 2015 M6 Junction 10 Improvements Contents Section Title Page/s 1 Introduction 3-5 1.1 Main Objectives 3 1.2 Scheme Options 4 1.3 Project Timescale 5 2 Consultation exercise 6-9 2.1 Overview 6-7 2.2 Promoting the consultation 8 2.3 Questionnaires 9 3 Questionnaire results and analysis 10-18 3.1 Travel behaviour 10-12 3.2 Proposed improvement 13-18 4.0 Conclusion 19 5.0 Further information - contact details 20 6.0 Appendices 21 2 1.0 Introduction Walsall Council is working in partnership with Highways England to improve Junction 10 of the M6 motorway (M6J10). As a busy route between Walsall and Wolverhampton, the junction is often heavily congested and this reduces the attractiveness of the local area for business and investment, including within the nearby Black Country Enterprise Zone. Walsall Council and Highways England are developing plans to provide a long term improvement to M6 Junction 10. The non-statutory public consultation events held in December 2015 presented the current scheme options and sought comments and feedback to inform the final decision and help shape the design. 1.1 Main objectives of the scheme There are three main objectives of the M6J10 scheme. The first objective is to reduce congestion. By improving M6J10, congestion can be reduced on the A454 Black Country Route eastbound to improve journey time reliability. This is critical to the needs of local residents, businesses and the 120 hectares of developable land within the nearby Black Country Enterprise Zone. Congestion can be reduced on other roads linking to the junction, such as A454 Wolverhampton Road, B4464 Wolverhampton Road West and Bloxwich Lane, reducing ‘rat-running’ traffic on nearby routes parallel to the A454 Black Country Route, the A454 Wolverhampton Road and the B4464 Wolverhampton Road West.

  • Parkside Development New Link Road Access to the M6 Motorway Proposal
    Richard Ward PINS Reference 3253194; 3253230; and 3253232 Parkside Development New Link Road Access to the M6 Motorway Proposal Page 1 of 20 June 2020 Current Link Road proposal as shown in the Drainage Plan Page 2 of 20 The Current Proposal for the Parkside Link Road by not being a dedicated direct link to the M6 motorway, the Commercial Vehicle Traffic that will be generated by the proposed development(s) in total will impact on the local roads from all directions as measures to prevent are impossible to manage. The following plan of road access to the proposed Parkside development show the Commercial Vehicle Traffic impact on the Local Roads. Where the utilisation of the Motorway M6 junction 22 will be little used with respect to the access to the proposed development from the local roads. The Access was not solved by the previous Parkside Proposals by the developers: 1996 British Coal/Morrisons; 2000+ RailTrack; 2004-2009 Astral Developments; and 2009-2012 Prologis. To whom all had withdrawn due to not being able to solve the Traffic situation, over and above the reason for the development for the need for jobs which has become secondary and not a main issue considering the Parkside proposals having been an issue since 1993 to 2018, (ie 25 years). So the need for jobs is still not the issue the traffic impact still is the issue purely due to the urban location surrounded by a major road infrastructure. It is this that is the problem, due to heavily industrialising an area that the surrounding locality can not cope with the proposed situation – traffic wise.
